Road Traffic Patterns Returning to Normal in Spain

This week in Spain, be prepared for localised traffic disruption due to major cultural festivals and a regional public holiday. A public holiday in Cantabria on Monday will cause heavier traffic on local routes, while major fiestas in Logroño (La Rioja) and Barcelona will bring road closures and delays for much of the week. Drivers are advised to plan their journeys and check DGT updates, particularly if travelling to these affected areas. The weekend will see peak congestion as these festivals reach their climax, compounded by typical weekend getaway traffic.
